Voices in CME-CPD
The theme of this year's meeting is "Voices in CME-CPD". We will address this from three angles, we will look at external voices in CME-CPD, not just listening to learners or patients, but the many other groups and organisations that can help with information and data to support us when designing, developing or delivering CME - it overlaps nicely with the theme of this year's Journal of CME Special Collection. We will also examine our own, internal voices, how we can learn from and support each other. The third part takes a look at how we need to listen to each other, and how we can come together to work more collaboratively in European and global CME-CPD. We will unravel who is calling for what by way of quality and independence, identify the decision-makers and influencers - perhaps even work out who is listening, to whom, and to what!
The meeting will be in-person only taking place 8-10 November 2023, at the Hotel NH Den Haag, The Hague, The Netherlands.
